Hi Mom!

Palm Springs is a desert! We stole all the water down here in South Orange County!! How is your trip going? 

On Tuesday morning I woke up from a dream that I had about some video game. It was about Star Wars. I really like Star Wars. I don't think I played Star Wars video games on a regular basis though, so I was confused about what, if anything, this dream meant. Obi-Wan Kenobi was the hero of the game and in my dream I just barely won. I just kept hearing in my head "Obi, Obi, Obi". then I thought about my friend Alex Obye! We called him Obye in high school. He and I played a Star Wars game together I think and I was just thinking about Obye a few days before that. So I was wondering if I can get Alex Obye's email address? Is that possible for you to get?  

This was an awesome week! Not perfect and not the numbers I was hoping for, but really I feel good about it. Numbers measure how much we are inviting and how much people are accepting. So we invited a lot this week, more than usual which was good, but not a whole lot of people accepted invitations. Invitations include to be baptized, hear the missionary discussion, come to church, give a referral, etc... Not that the numbers represent "success", but they are a strong measure of our diligence and effort and positive responses. 

I feel like it was a $5 week because every one did their best.

I am looking forward to crazy roller coasters with Harrison. He just needs to wait about 15 more months for when I get home from my mission! I think that is about how much longer I have.

We had some really nice lessons this week and I feel like we have some really good relationships with the people here in the ward. Nothing huge happened, but I am really happy here.

Get psyched for General Conference! #MoTab

Have a great week

Love, Elder Jefferson Chandler
